- LF Billy McKinney: 0-3, 1 BB, 1 K
- C Gary Sanchez: 0-4, 2 K — 2-for-12 (.167) with two homers and six strikeouts in his three rehab games … as long as the groin is healthy, he should be back with the Yankees on Friday … tomorrow is a scheduled rest day after catching nine innings tonight
- 1B Tyler Austin: 2-4, 2 2B — had been in a 2-for-18 (.111) skid
- 2B Brandon Drury: 0-3, 2 K — first Triple-A game at second base … he played two games there in the big leagues a few weeks ago
